I strongly object to the proposed rule changes being proffered by the NFA and CFTC.
Changing the amount of leverage a forex broker in the US could offer to 10-1 will force me to
change brokers to one overseas or stop trading on the Foreign Exchange altogether.
Trading on the Foreign Exchange gives me the opportunity to provide for my famly in the hard
economic times that we are facing now as a nation.
I urge you to not change the leverage offered by US Brokers from 100:1 to 10:1 as it will only
further hurt our suffering economy.
